Would it be feasible to attach this to the top of an easel, to light a painting in progress? Possibly with something like a bungee cord?

Because it would have a base to tie to if you were to hang it upside down, it would be feasible to attach it to an easel. Mine is inoperative since I wanted it for a picture light and it is basically out of reach for the VERY frequent battery replacement it requires. It does not put out a lot of light. I was disappointed on both counts: battery life and inadequate illumination.

Sure, but the lighting is mild. If you need a stronger light, like a blue or yellow day light, I suggest putting one of those in a clamp on work light.

Not very well and I can't recommend it because mine stopped working within a few months.

I don't think it would be useful for continuous long-time use. The lighting is not strong and I can't imagine it being used unless it's attached directly to a wall or similar object. I bought it to use as a nightlight to hi-light a picture in a hall. It does have a remote so it can be activated from a distance but I don't turn it on often... only when I'm setting nighttime ambience in that area. Although I like the light I would only recommend it for infrequent use as I'm using it.

It does swivel, so it might. I believe I read that someone attached to the top of a picture frame, so that would say "Yes"

This question is difficult to answer without knowing/seeing the type of easel since some have a horizontal bar across the top, while others come to a single point (as in the point of a triangle.In any case, a bungee cord might work, as would a clamp or even a piece of heavy-duty velcro.Good luck.

I doubt it as it was hard to pull the cord on ceiling fan light as you cannot grip it tight enough to pull it down without pull it off the light pull, so I think it would also be hard to grasp and turn without losing your grip on it.

The light emitted does not illuminate very far, only a few inches. As long as the lines are void of fluid, short, and not very sharp turns/curves, this might work for you.

Maybe?! The cool thing about this light is the casing is aluminium. So if you have the tools and skills you could tap it and built a seriously strong mount for it. Out of the box? I'd say the mount it comes with would not stand up to that kind of use.

If you want it to actually light up, you'll have to buy a Light cord. (Plug in for an outlet on one end, light socket on the other. To hang it I just got a little hook to screw into the ceiling. I got both at Walmart really cheap

Yes - that's how I have one of mine being used to put light on a sheet of plastic canvas. Note: can't have this on a timer as it does not turn off/on using a timer. Works fine when you leave it on

It won't work if you want it to be a standing easel. The clips would collapse the boards. You could use strong magnets to hold the paper on to the white board, though.

Hello, I purchased this item as a gift, but it would appear that the light attaches to the wall and the picture would be hung under the light. Or the picture would be hung over the mounting bracket of the picture light.

You can attach the light to the frame or the wall, but it's very heavy. We attached the light to the wall and after a couple of weeks it pulled out of the wall and we no longer use the light. I would look for something not so heavy.

I don't think the light is bright enough to do that. Need to use it for things up close.

Sorry I have no idea. I just use it as a decoration and hang it from the ceiling with no light in it. I would appear with a cord with a light bulb is what you insert in this. I think on the web site it sold it as well. Sorry I'm not more help

Depends on the size of the painting since the bolts move close together at the highest setting. Overall this easel is prabably too lightweight to paint against. It is very lightweight.

Need to be creative to be able to do that. You may clamp the light onto fixtures on the wall. A direct wall mounting light would be a better option.

If you try to hang it on the ceiling... there are some things to consider. 1, this is a very thin paper and should have air flow through both top and bottom holes. 2, you probably want to use low watt lamp to avoid overheating and possible fire. 3, you will have to creatively use some wire (maybe coat hanger) to attach it. If you are careful, I think your idea would work. I may even try this myself.

I think it will work. The light is not very bright and can be adjusted. I returned the item already 'cause the wire broke off at the converter so cant test it for you. I used it to cast a glow on the wall.

Hi there I use it for a much larger painting ,high up on a living room wall and a very dark colors painting....so unfortunately it is not strong enough, but we still love it.we also use it for a smaller brighter painting in the dining room and there it is fine. So I believe it should be ok for yours...

I doubt it. The photocell is right in the middle so maybe with a big enough piece of electrical tape but then you would be covering some of the emitters. For the price it may be worth a try.
